chasmmi Posted October 8, 2016 Author Share Posted October 8, 2016 97th - An American Tale 74pts - 8 votes, (2014: 92nd Down 5) 7 year old me: Feivel they're there! Right there! Turn around! No! Now they're there! Feival! No Don't go that way! This is a film that consistently messes with your head at every opportunity. In one way it is a standard 'lost child trying to find family and has wacky adventures' affair, but it does it so well and there is always that air of darkness and potential tragedy that Bluth does so well. Pretty much a non-mover since last time around, I wish it was higher, but still good to see it remain in the top 100. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalo Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 9 hours ago, chasmmi said: 98th - The Peanuts Movie 72pts - 8 votes, (2014: N/A) I absolutely hate this film. Which is probably the best news Peanuts fans could hear. I have always disliked all things Charlie Brown. I hate the moaning nature of the main character, the whiny girlfriend, it stupid kid with the blanket, even that fucking dog and his stupid sidequests. I especially despise the way adults talk. This film captures all of those aspects perfectly and as such is a film that I hate, but fans of original peanuts stuff should probably really appreciate and adore and at the end of the day that is a great thing. If I had loved this film, it would mean the makers sacrificed or removed all the quirks that makes Peanuts Peanuts. So I can understand its place on the list despite my own personal feelings. Do you have any idea how many people's childhoods you just insulted! take it back. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 96th - The Fox and the Hound 74pts - 9 votes, (2014: 75th Down 21) One of the sadder Disney films, this one always stuck with me. The last film to be worked on my the legendary Wolfgang Reitherman (Look him up, he did like all the best pre-1980 Disney stuff). This film shows the sometimes touching, sometimes tragic relationship between a fox and a hunting dog. When you look at the list of films in general between Jungle Book and Little Mermaid, it really doesn't make sense how things went so downhill for Disney, there are a lot of good to great films in that period and this is one of them. Am pretty sad to see it drop 20 places. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 95th - Happy Feet 75pts - 7 votes, 2 Top 10 (2014: 91st Down 4) The Mad Max of animated films. I didn't realise that this actually won the Oscar for Best Animation. I just saw cute penguins dancing and decided not to watch it. Apparently it may be better than I assumed it wouldn't be. To be honest, if I had realised then that it was the guy who did Babe directing this, then I probably would have given it a shot when it came out. This also puts it close to the top of my list of animations I hope to eventually get round to watching. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasmmi Posted October 9, 2016 Author Share Posted October 9, 2016 Six of the Biggest Losers These are six of the films that dropped the furthest since 2014 (That also missed the list completely). Some of these films make me a lot sadder than others... Over The Hedge Was 84th Now 223rd Down 139 Brother Bear: Was 95th, Now 208th Down 113 Pokemon: The Movie 107th Now 254th Down 147 Treasure Planet Was 108th Now 161st Down 53 Atlantis: The Lat Empire Was 115th Now 162nd Down 47 Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron Was 116th Now 263rd Down 147 From a personal standpoint I feel that Over The Hedge and Pokemon are no big loss to the top 150. Brother Bear and Spirit I never saw so I cannot comment (although I have heard that parts at least of Brother Bear are actually pretty good). Treasure Planet and Atlantis should have made top 150 though. They are both strong, interesting and entertaining films that should have hit a bigger audience than they did. Hopefully they can return to the list in 2018 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they can return to the list in 2018 I've yet to watch Treasure Planet, I will soon-ish. Atlantis I watched and liked not long after release, and considered including it in my list but I haven't seen it since and couldn't remember much (could be because it was shown in school). Planning to re-watch it. 7 minutes ago, chasmmi said: Brother Bear and Spirit I never saw so I cannot comment (although I have heard that parts at least of Brother Bear are actually pretty good). Brother Bear's another one that I've seen only once at school that seemed likeable enough to my recollection but I couldn't remember any details. Another one for the re-watch list.

Jake Gittes Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I'll always have a soft spot for Treasure Planet as the first movie I ever saw in theaters (but it's good even without that). Was sad to see just how hard it flopped once I discovered box office a few years later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndustriousAngel Posted October 9, 2016 Share Posted October 9, 2016 I didn't make friends with Treasure Planet ... didn't much like the character designs and the animation was sloppy, too - looked too much like a cheap TV production. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spidey Freak Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 I will be genuinely surprised if it is anything other than The Lion King, and I don't get surprised a lot. At least not genuinely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancyarcher Posted October 10, 2016 Share Posted October 10, 2016 (edited) I'm expecting that to Spirited Away to be #3 or in the top ten, but not #1. The Lion King will likely be #1, unless another film suddenly takes the top spot. Edited October 10, 2016 by Daniel Dylan Davis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
